• This is eye opening data. And again I'll note that Vercel (like OpenRouter) is a very small fraction of all AI spend, and tilts towards certain customers and use cases. The trends on each might be canaries in the coal mine, but we can't yet generalize to industry-wide AI spend.
  Quoting@GavinSBakerOpen models continue taking share. Not just tokens, more $ now spent on open models than OpenAI. Positive for the AI infra trade. Open models taking share shift $ margin from the model layer to the infra and app layers.

• Looks like today may be a record day for token volume % of open models on Vercel AI Gateway: 🟦 Open 78.4% 🟨 Closed 21.6% While spend 💲 usually tells a different story, #3 and #4 today are Moonshot AI & DeepSeek. Adding Z⁠.ai, their combined spend surpasses OpenAI (#2). (Do note that's the spend for inference of the model across providers (mostly in the US), not revenue going directly to the open weight labs.)

• It's likely that more software will be produced next year than in all of the history of computing. It took Vercel 10 years to get to 1 billion deployments, but then we added another 1.4 billion in the last 10 months alone. Some of this will be tiny, personal and even disposable software. An HTML file with some javascript ("artifacts"), a report, a pricing calculator, a slide deck, all the way to sophisticated apps, agents and platforms. Deployment speed is one of our obsessions. We've brought down the time to deploy, upload, assign a domain and globally propagate an artifact to 1 second. This…
  Quoting@vercel_devYou and your coding agent can now use the CLI to deploy static artifacts in less than one second. ▲ ~/ vercel deploy ./my-static-site --prod

• We're seeing extraordinary results from @typesafeai. Default mode in 𝚏𝚡 is auto, with a safety reviewer analyzing every command. That reviewer runs on GPT Luna today. Jev is up to 18x faster (p95) *and* more accurate. It's coming to @vercel AI Gateway and likely new default.
